Why is the program bringing up the wrong locality code for the Virginia ZIP code I entered? What state locality code should I use?
Some ZIP codes overlap cities and counties or even two counties. Drake Tax uses a ZIP Code data base that selects the first option it finds, whether city or county, obtained from U.S. resources.
You can override the locality code on VA screen 1. This would be the code where the VA income was earned.
VA EF Message 0307
VA Electronic Filing NOT Allowed.
Locality code is a required entry. Must correspond with 3 digit
code, must be all numeric. See table 1 (VA Pub 1346) for valid
codes.
In order to clear this EF Message, go to States > VA > Screen 1 (Demographic Info - Residency/Filing Status), and enter the correct locality code for the taxpayer and spouse, if applicable.
